RAPID ROBERTS REVIEW For the second evening in a row, we shall deal with things Junior Bee-ish, and for the second evening, we shall also talk about an error by the boys with official duties. Last night during the second period of the play-off game be- tween the Bees and the Petes (which the Bees won 6-4 and so tied the series 1-1) a number of players were sent to the penalty bench, all within two minutes of each other. The number, to be exact, was five; two from the Bees and three from the Petes. According to the rules, "If a third player of any team shall be penalized while two players of the same team are serving penalties, the penalty time of the third player shall not com- mence until the penalty time of one of the two players al- penalized shall have elapsed." The first man for the Petes, was penalized at 3:35 and the third at 5:15. The third man was sent off with an Oshawa player on a gouble penalty for highs Now, despite the fact that he went into the penalty box at the same time as the Oshawa player, that Peterboro player (Wyatt) should have left the box some 20 seconds later. But a mix-up somewhere saw Wyatt leap over the boards at the same moment the Oshawa player hit the ice. That slip of some 20 seconds might easily have swayed the balance in the game one way or the other . . . as it turned out, the team offended won out and no great damage was done « « « had they lost though . . .? 7 4 While on the subject of the Bees, we'd like to bring to prominence one of the better centre players on the club . . . one Ted DeGray. It seems there is always a player at one position over- shadowed by another at the same post on a club simply be- cause he doesn't possess that thing called "color". This was true of Ab Gilbert, pitcher with the Transporter Juniors last year. Yet Ab went on to pitch in the clutch against Peter Pans where no other hurler could. Here is Ted DeGray, playing on the same club as Fred Etcher, the league's leading scorer. Ted didn't get the pub- Netty Fred received because he didn't pot goals at the rate that did. One big reason for this was the fact that he was on night shift quite a while through the practices and games aad Bun in top shape till late in the season. Last night Ted slapped three goals and assisted on another in a brilliant display. His line - mate George Brabin picked up two goals and the other , Jedd Wilson, as- sisted on three tallies. All this after Etcher was injured . . . the boys came through in the clutch, and to our way of think- ing the clutch found Mr. De- Gray ready and Hats off, fellahs! And Mr, Hockey Scout . . . there's a find for you. Vv . CHECKLETS -- Bob Raw- Iyk of the Windsor Spitfires cracked his leg earlier this year and wasn't supposed to be of much use to the club dur- ing this season. However the other night while getting into condition against the Galt Black Hawks, he plugged home the winning goal with about 34 seconds left in the game. The 18-year-old guy came through in the pinch after being out of the game for close to five months, Toronto's Fred Hamilton Playground Juniors scored straight wins over Queen's Juniors to move into the O.ABA.

He'll miss the seven games the Caps have left in the regular series and the play- offs in which the Caps have as- sured themselves a place. Rocket Richard was fined $500 but wasn't suspended for his action against a referee. See- ing that the guy already is probably one of the higher paid players in the game, plus the fact that he earns $100 per goal scored , . . he shouldn't have too much trouble paying the fine. In fact his three goals against Chicago over the week- end should put him just $200 away from payment of the fine. Doesn't seem fair to the other players in the Teague eh? By Bob Rife.

TELEPHONE 262 "Where Do We Go From Johnny Greco Belts Ferland T.K.0. In Ninth Montreal, March 13--(CP)--Mon- treal's belting Johnny Greco still is tops in the Canadian welter- weight division today, a fact he ably demonstrated last night with a convincing ninth-round technical knockout over Gaby Ferland, also of Montreal. Both fighters entered the ring at 147 pounds for the 12-round title match, witnessed by a crowd of 5500 fans who contributed a gross gate of $13,737. It was the second meeting be- tween the two fighters and the fifth time that the swarthy Mon- trealer has mentioned the title he took from Montreal's Dave Castil- loux in 1948. It was in that year that Greco and Ferland first met and Greco knocked his opponent out in six rounds. Greco was in tip-top shape last night and he belted the French- Canadian around the ring, especial- ly in the ninth when he had him down for an automatic eight-count before Referee Tommy Sullivan halted the match and raised Greco's arm in victory, A Canadian press score-card gave Greco four pounds up to the start of the ninth and the lead in that round before the fight was stopped. After a slow start, Ferland took the second and third rounds on the basis of his aggressiveness. He rocked the champion with power- ful right uppercuts but Greco had plenty left and came back hard and fast. When the end came, Greco was blasting Ferland with a free- swinging, two-fisted attack Frankie Almond Retains His Title In One-Sided Win By DAVE MCINTOSH Vancouver, March 13 -- (CP) -- Cool, methodical Frankie Almond of Vancouver stabbed Olivier Breton of Toronto into a bleeding heap last night to retain his Canadian Fea- therweight Boxing Championship. Almond won by a technical knock- out at the end of the eighth round of the scheduled 12-rounder -- the first defence of his title since he took it from Lou Alter of Montreal a year ago. Breton collapsed for an eight. count just before the end of the eighth. When the bell rang, the referee lifted Almond's arm. Al- mond weighed 124%, one pound less than the challenger. The 21-year-old Vancouver boy had a four-inch advantage in reach but those four inches looked like a yard by the end of the third round. Almond's trip-hammer left was in the 26-year-old Torontonian's face, all night. opened a cut under Breton's t eye. By the fifth, a mouse balloon under Breton's left eye. To get in where he could reach Almond, Breton had to take terrible punishment. And by the time his looping left had reached Almond, the blow had spent itself or the champion was rolling away. Almond was unmarked at the end. He wasn't in trouble at any time. A flurry of rights and lefts brought on the finish. Late in the eighth round, a bruising left bent Breton's head. A right knocked it upright again. Two more just like that and Bre- ton's guard fell, he wandered over toward the ropes and sat down. He got up groggily at eight but before Almond could get in another good lick, the gong had sounded. In the third, Almong' Me "Ab" Demarco Has AHL Title About Clinched New York, March 13 (CP) -- Ab Demarco, veteran centre of Buffalo Bisons, virtually clinched the Amer- ican Hockey League individual scor- ing championship last week with a total of 104 points, With only a week of regular play remaining, it would take a tremend- ous spurt by Jack McGill of Provi- dence Reds, who has 96 points, to supplant Demarco at the top. Including games of Sunday, De- marco notched 35 goals and had 69 assists in 61 games. McGill bagged 27 goals and 69 assists in 66 games. Fred Glover of Indianapolis is the leading goal-getter with 46. Glover set a league record of scor- ing in 11 straight games. The league's leading bad man is Harry Dick of Buffalo, with 212 minutes.

The bout, promoted by the Inter- national Boxing Club, actually starts a welterweight championship series. The winner--Bratton, 23-year-old ' Chicago negro, currently rates an 8-5 favorite over his five-months- idle Italian rival--is contracted to fight Cuba's Kid Gavilan in a title defence within 45 days, presumably at New York. The winner of the Gavilan bout then is booked to face Britain's Eddie Thomas, European champ, within three months. This complies with a National Boxing Association decree which followed Sugar Ray Robinson's win- ning the middleweight title from Jake LaMotta at Chicago Feb. 14. Both the N.B.A. and the inde- pendent New York State Athletic Commission ruled that Robinson automatically vacated his welter- weight crown when he beat LaMot- ta. On this point, Robinson and the British boxing board of control dis- agree. The B.B.B.C. last week offi- cially confirmed Robinson's claim that he still holds the welterweight title. Sugar Ray probably won't un- dertake the arduous task again of trimming down to the 147-pound welter limit, but asserts it's up to Nin to abdicate of his own free Wednesday night's scheduled 15- rounder will be televised and broad- cast. The 1.B.C. hopes for a 10,000- 12,000 crowd paying a gross of around $55,000. Fusari had a crack at Robinson's welterweight crown last Aug, 9, but dropped a 15-round deciston to Su- 77 | gar Ray.

'Happy' Chandler Again Voted Out, Likely to Resign Miami Beach, Fla, March 13 -- (AP)--Baseball Commissioner Al- bert B. (Happy) Chandler will re- sign his post within the next six months regardless of whether his successor is, elected, it was learned today. A close friend of the Commis sioner told the Associated Press that Chandler had debated the idea of quitting immediately after his repudiation by the Major-League owners yesterday, but was, advised against it. As was the case three months ago, the magnates voted not to re- elect Chandler to a new term. In a written secret ballot, nine owners voted for Chandler and seven voted B58 snag 8 gszgesd 9 2333313888 33 A. B. "HAPPY" CHANDLER * + * against him. He needed 12 for re- election. The former Kentucky Senator's seven-year contract ends April 30, 1952. "Happy knew he was licked Sun- day after a talk with Clark Grif- fith of Washington, his staunch- est supporter," the Chandler inti- mate said. "He suggested resign- ing then but was advised to re- serve decision until he talked with his closest friends among the baseball magnates. "Chandler knows he cannot hope ever to be re-elected now. He is sick of baseball and disgusted with the way he has been mistreated by some baseball men. He wants to get out of it as soon as possible and return to his first love, which is politics." The crestfallen Chandler was meek and mellow yesterday in sharp contrast to his attitude at the last vote when he was bitter and battling and vowed he'd serve out his term to the last second. This time he said he would do anything the club owners ay. @@« him to do, and that he would make it as easy as possible for them to elect a new Commissioner.
